Ribbon Braiding

Just a little craft I did recently... my hymnbook bookmarker fell apart recently, so I went about creating a new one. Quite a few years ago, my aunt taught me how to braid ribbon. Mostly she used it for decoration on hats and other things. I had some pink and blue ribbon on hand, so here's what I ended up with... I love it!

Christmas Baking... mmmm!

I don't know if baking counts as crafting... but it's something we create with our hands, so I'm going to say it qualifies! :-) And the results are so yummy! Last saturday I had a free day (doesn't happen too often), and ended up making whole wheat bread, chocolate covered pretzels, sugar cookies, and oatmeal raisin cookies. I have plans for butterscotch/white chocolate chip cookies, and more chocolate covered pretzels. We are going to have sweet holidays!!
